Biden was Grumpy, Rude, and Manic

Just like Mitt Romney and Barack Obama during the first Presidential Debate, Paul Ryan and Joe Biden were themselves during the Vice Presidential Debate.

Paul Ryan was polite, courteous, and very knowledgeable.

Joe Biden was grumpy, rude, and manic in his behavior. In stark contrast to Barack Obama, who appeared to be hung over and sedated during the first Presidential Debate, Joe Biden was manic, unhinged, and rude. Joe Biden repeatedly interrupted both Paul Ryan and the debate moderator.

Paul Ryan won the debate because he had better responses. Joe Biden lost any advantage he had in the debate with his rude and inappropriate behavior. This debate will probably have no effect on the results of the General Election, so the debate was effectively a draw.

The best lines came from Paul Ryan. During one of Biden’s bombastic rants, Ryan calmly said with a warm smile, “Mr. Vice President, I know you're under a lot of duress to make up for lost ground, but I think people would be better served if we don't keep interrupting each other.”

The other memorable exchange of the evening in which Ryan hit the ball out of the park was when Biden claimed ObamaCare would not force Catholics or others to compromise their faith. Ryan calmly responded and asked Biden, “If they — if they agree with you, then why would they keep — why would they keep suing you?”

Paul Ryan acted like a Vice President who can remain calm while under attack by an unhinged manic opponent. Paul Ryan was himself, and he behaved with grace and calmness befitting of a Conservative. Joe Biden was also himself, a rude and arrogant Liberal behaving like a bully.

I watched the debate on CNN, hardley a conservitive station. Their focus group had Ryan 48% Biden 44%, within the marigin of error so it was pretty much a tie. Biden had 8 negative moments to Ryans 1, with Ryan having 5 positive moments to Bidens 3. The likability went to Ryan.
CNN viewers thought that Ryan expressed himself more clearly than the Vice President, with Ryan winning 50 per cent compared to Biden's 41 per cent.
Ryan also had a higher likability percentage than Biden.
The fact checker was just as tough on Biden as they were on Ryan.
So those on the left who continue to spew lies that only Ryan mislead or lied are not being honest.
You can be assertive in debates without being disrespectful, to me Biden was trying to bulldoze Ryan and gain points, according to the CNN focus group he achieved the opposite.

I misspell it intentionally in order to make a point, but I guess you don't get it sometimes.

Look, my concern is that Barack Obama is way over his head or he is in bed with The United States' Enemies....and then, I wonder on which side is he on ....as well as , which side are you liberal-socialist on ?

Also, I don't care what label we put on it or the enemy puts on it ....they hate us and they are hell bend in destroying our Culture and Our Way of Life.....and the bottom line: It's Islam!

Let's get more leaders like General Allen to lead the fight and to tell us the Truth instead of all these Cover-Ups.

I realize that most Americans have no clue what we are up against or who we are fighting...but let's make no mistake we are in a fight whether we like it or not .

Obama's poor attempt at hiding it just to win re-election is not going to cut it . People need to know...because our troops are still coming home in flag-drapped-coffins!

What May is saying to you essentially is, if he still had control over moderation on this blog, he'd place every post you make under "moderation." He used his form of censorship time and time again under the old system. He moderated anybody that challenged his supreme authority of GOTP rhetoric. I think it's great he can no longer invoke unilateral "moderation.

I knew a nice friend of mind from Iran that ate the cat while we were students at Sul Ross State University in Alpine. I once was assign to service the Sha's C-130 Air Plane . So yes, I could say I have some people I knew there.

I grew-up with a girl that married an Irainian and now can't leave the country of Iran. Also, I have a good friend who became a Christian Preacher....who is from Iran . In fact, he came to Lubbock,Texas to speak to our group not to long ago.

I also know that there are many very good people in Iran...that are oppose to the current regime as we Americans are . So yes, we have friends in the middle east . I know some that come to Aspen,Colorado every year....

So my fight is not with the people of the middle east...it's with the ' Islamic Ideology '.

While you are correct that I choose topics and make comments to push people to think, I believe what I write and say.

My foundations and beliefs are mainstream America.

The Democratic base has moved so far to the Progressive Left that mainstream beliefs held by ordinary Republicans, and once held by most Democrats as recently as 1960, seem to now be radically to the Far Right.

Those on the Left need to reflect on their beliefs and to consider with which groups those beliefs occurred in the 20th Century.

You don't need to worry about that. You'll be gone in a blink of the eye and all of the "hard work" you have put into this daily drivel will be forgotten forever. You're barking up the wrong tree Don, there ain't no ra-coon up there.

Dorotik: You speak much and make pro and con statements about your own statements....however, I get it ...Your're Liberal and Pro Obama. Nothing is wrong with that. You do have that right. But deeper than that...what's up ? Are you Pro or Anti-American.

I suspect but I still can't figure out your true ideology . However, my pre-conclusion is that you and Obviousman are afraid of Dr May's writings. Why ?

Thank you for your (not you, Oblivious) thought out comments. It is quite rare, apparently, from those who support Obama to hear an analysis of what you like and dislike about the opponent without all the hatred and venom evident from most of the Obama supporters who post on this blog. All of them claim May to be full of hatred, but they throw just as much or more out onto this page as anything May might have ever thought about.

Funny you should say that. I believe that there are more than a few posters here (including Obviousman, not Oblivious), who feel the same way as dorotik (not Dorotick). Problem is, not many of us are willing to let that position be known, because we are on a daily basis, bombarded with May, and the 1.1%ers BS. Disagree with May, or any of his more enthusiastic hangers-on, and you are instantly called one of the many isms he loves so, Muslim, Anti-American, and so on, and so on. Disagreement is a fact of life, there is no way around that, but why should I be bullied, ridiculed, and made to feel like I am breaking the law because of it?? Another fact is hate begets hate far more frequently than it does love, or any other emotion for that matter. May, and the others are entitled to their opinions, and should voice them vigorously every chance they get. What they aren't entitled to, is to take my entitlement to my opinion away. I don't want to hear about how "no one is trying to do that here", because everytime he or the others go on one of their Obama-loving, enemy comforting, this that or the other ism name calling tirades, that is exactly what they are doing. Am I or any of the other posters here victims? NO, because we choose to respond here, but if it is decorum you are wanting, you are in the wrong place. A complete lack of decorum, seems to eminate on this blog, from the top down.

Most of our fellow Americans consider themselves to be Conservative. I suspect there will be a considerable increase in our Conservative ranks because of Joe Biden’s actions last night. Only the most devout Liberals would condone the behavior of Joe Biden in the Vice Presidential debate and the abandonment of the Benghazi Consulate by Barack Obama.

Where are these liberal progressives that post on a Lubbock blog? An Army of one if I ever saw one. Biden is a weirdo and liberals that stay up until 2-3 AM posting here... are weirdos. Good bye weirdos , see you on election day.
